Intriguing .....

One of around 20 remaining round towers in Ireland, this is the tallest and begs the question of how the tower was accessed as a refuge as the doorway is about 7 metres off the ground. A lovely place to wander around, quiet, green and imagination abounds as to the life lived there in the past. We came across it quite by chance when driving through the Burren area and were delighted to have it to ourselves.

Came across the ruins on the way to visit the Burren and took time to stop and look around. A very interesting extended site, you can walk around and explore. There is a car park and you can look around in your own time. Although the buildings are roof less you get a very good idea of how it must have been with tower rising like a modern grain silo silhouetted against the sky. So glad we stopped. Added interest is the graveyard and inquisitive cows.

It's full of interesting ruins, and you can get in, the people in the house across the street have keys for which you are asked to leave a deposit. It's supposed to have the tallest round tower in existence. Lovely to visit such a place without hoards of tourists.
